"Would it be a problem if I'm angry most of the time?",`Why, what did she tell you?'
the boldface quote is from a list of the "most unusual" questions that have been asked by job candidates, the veracity of which is uncertain and the origin apparently unknown.

I was reading an article the other day about how "political correctness" has infected the manufacturers of school text books in the United States. These publishers have to scrub their text so as to not offend anyone.

I'm not making this up.

For instance, these publishers can't even print the legendary The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. Why not?

"Old" is ageist.

"Man" is sexist.

"Sea" can't be used in case a student lives inland and doesn't grasp the concept of a large body of water.
